George DeMet had a sweet obsession. It drove the growth of the single Chicago candy store he opened in 1916 to become three, and created a business that boomed as big as the city it started in. DeMet’s TURTLES® Caramel Nut Clusters contained the secret to that success. The perfect trio of chewy caramel, crunchy nuts and decedent chocolate achieved this confection perfection.

Though the company he founded has changed hands since George DeMet first sold it in 1950, our commitment to superior customer satisfaction has never changed. That focus led to the product that was to revolutionize chocolate snacking: FLIPZ® Chocolate Covered Pretzels. There’d been other attempts to balance the salty crunch of pretzels with the smooth sweetness of chocolate, but only FLIPZ® realized the delicious recipe that has made it America’s favorite.

Today, the DeMet’s brand is stronger than ever, feeding an international appetite for the flavors our fans crave. We’ll keep going with the perfect pair of products and principles that have led to that success. Our TURTLES® Caramel Nut Clusters and FLIPZ® Chocolate Covered Pretzels will always be crafted with our unwavering commitment to the quality of their ingredients. We continue to look forward to inspiring the delicious delight of our customers in every single bite!
